Rename a git submodule

Question

Is there some easy way to rename a git submodule directory (other than going through the entire motion of deleting it and re-adding it with a new destination name).

Answer 1

MacOs: When I wanna use VonC solution to change submodule folder Common to lowercase:

git mv Common common

I get

fatal: renaming 'Common' failed: Invalid argument

Solution - use some temporary folder name and move twice:

git mv Common commontemp
git mv commontemp common

That's all :)
